Description:
Blue-singer,
songwriter, piano and guitar player, William Bunch (1902-1941) was well-known
as Peetie Wheatstraw, the Devil's Son-in-Law and the High Sheriff from Hell.
Long recognized by connoisseurs as one of the most influential blues people of
all time, his life and work are little known to the broad public. Blues scholar
Paul Garon's important and abundantly illustrated study - drawing on his own
extensive interviews with Wheatstraw's relatives, and fellow musicians - brings
the exciting Whatstraw saga to life at last. With insight and imagination,
Garon explores Peetie Wheatstraw's crucial role not only in blues history, but
also in African American urban mythology, and - via a penetrating analysis of
song lyrics - his appreciable contributions to blues poetry and to vernacular
surrealism. Originally published in the UK in 1971, this substantially revised
and expanded edition includes a mass of new information and images, as well as
an updated bibliography, discography and index. Also included is a 24-track CD
portraying Peetie at his best, with a bonus track by Harmon Ray, the previously
unissued Xmas Blues!
